Familial narcissism. From a very young age, I was taught to hate myself and feel unlovable, unworthy, and that I was less than others, by my narcissistic mother. She made me the family scapegoat. She was emotionally neglecting. Abusive (Psychologically and physically). Unsupportive. Mean-spirited. Manipulative. Bullying. Emotionally immature. Competitive. Domineering. Jealous. Selfish. Loveless. I was disempowered, emasculated, guilted, shamed, belittled, rejected, ostracized, abandoned, humiliated, neglected, abused, infantilized, criticized. The loveless picture she painted of me is a total lie. It was how she felt about herself, projected on to her innocent child (scapegoat), so that she didnt have to feel those things in herself. She felt entitled to do this, without conscience for how it affected her child, because she only saw the child as a compartmentalized extension of herself, refusing to acknowledge her childs own sovereign rights to exist as an independent being. It is a selfish belief and attitude of owning the child and doing whatever she wants with it, like a disposable thing. "You owe me your life" "You wouldnt even exist without me" "You have no rights" "You are mine to do with whatever I feel like" The ONLY antidote to this lifetime of loveless abuse is.....Total Self-love, Self-acceptance. "I am inherently good" "I dont need to be doing things for other people to feel worthy" "I dont need approval from others to feel good about myself" "I dont need external validation to feel good about myself" "I am good, just because I am" "I am lovable" "I am not good or bad, for any reason"
The first few moments of this video stood out to me because I genuinely thought that in order to be more confident in myself, I had to be better first. So I would watch all these vids on other people's personalities and speaking styles to 'better' myself, and I felt like I had to earn something before I can become confident. I just want to take a moment to say that I really appreciate you and your vids, Julien.
I do at one point too. Then as time went I I learned who I was and wasn’t for the first time and felt a certain assuredness in that. A quiet confidence. I was never allowed to be me so no wonder I had no esteem or confidence. I had no baseline or foundation of self. But then I learned thru some heavy lifting who I am. And sorry my father but it’s not a carbon copy of you like you absolutely insisted on by withdrawing if I wasn’t. I say that to say this …. It’s a game changer when we can finally in life (my 40s) say yes I know who I am. We get more acquainted with that person and see all the good we offer. If it’s not for someone else that’s okay and I expect it won’t for everyone. It’s usually the people who don’t have their own true self figured out. They want you exactly how they want you to make themselves feel better. It’s easier than dealing with a confident you with boundaries that you uphold

I suffer from some extreme social anxiety. Hats off to that man over there, he is so braveee!!!!…I remember being obnoxiously loud, talkative and having lots of friends to hang out w/. But over the years I stopped mixing with people, even going out on a daily basis is a struggle. There are times I completely isolate myself and stay confined to the walls of my room. I guess I have become a hikikomori. It takes up a lot of courage to go outside. My social anxiety is so bad that I’m even anxious around my close friends. It has affected me a lot. I never type a comment, cuz like my mind keeps on telling me that everyone hates me…I just recently found out about this channel. And I’m so grateful that I did. I’m really looking forward to be myself again. Thank you julien so much, you are doing a great service to people who are struggling. Your vids are awesome ❤ keep it up…!!!
If you want to,consider looking up Marisa peer or John kehoe. Both explain and give techniques for taking back control over your mind. What youre imagining may be the source of your issues. Thoughts and feelings create actions. You can consciously use your imagination to create any thoughts and feelings you choose. With repetition, you can write yourself new thoughts with new feelings and result in new behaviours.
That’s awesome that you are coming out of your shell. Not everyone was meant to like you is what I keep reminding myself of. Once you like you is what matters the most.
Relatable, Now I overthink making jokes even I feel like even making a joke is going to offend someone which is why I say a lot less, among other reasons.

You’ve got this 💪
I have decided to be happy! It’s my choice to do so! Moving forward I try hard to be positive even when the skies are gray., but when I’m not myself… I remember I! I am the only one in charge of my emotions , my reactions, n my love.
Thank you for spreading.. you own wonderful jam on the internet. The fist time i saw one of you clips i thought 'oh I love this dude, he just is' I hope you influence help more people just be themselves
That part about making myself the goal of everyone else to aspire to was awesome. If everyone wants to be like me then it all of a sudden becomes ok for me to have my challenges (anxiety, depression, etc). Well it actually reminded me of the couple of days right before I get my period. I start getting down in the dumps, super emotional to where I feel like I’m losing my damn mind. Then my period starts and it explains away everything and I feel like oh that was just a natural part of the process. Everything’s fine! And I am soooo relieved haha!
Hey Julien, at around 1:50 I love the point you are making that people pump themselves up and try to put up a high vibe all the time (could be a happy smiley face all that time) and that's scamming. But at the same time, I remember in some other video that nobody wants to be around someone boring and monotonous and that makes sense as well and so you should be able to bring up that charisma even when you're in your head. This seems a little contradictory because both seem correct. One thing says: Take up more space and share joy and happiness and bring up the vibe, be loud and charismatic! The other one says: Nothing is ever worth compromising your authenticity so if you're feeling anxious, you shouldn't scam people by being superficially charismatic and high energy. What paradigm should I consider whether both holds true and the contradiction breaks?
I feel like you’re viewing this in extremes. Because time is added into the equation, you can be yourself, and feel aspects of both, depending on when it is.
There's a way to be both at the same time. You can be confidently anxious. Usually people pretend that they aren't anxious or they withdraw, both because of shame. If you remove shame and unveil confidence you can be confidently anxious: You are open about your anxiety, you even joke about it etc.
Oh, my God... This was a beautiful video. The parts where Julien asks everyone why they're good enough... Wow. Just wow. That's hitting me so fucking hard right now lol... Thank you posting, thank you for being here.
The question "Are you good enough?" without any context asked with a proud and interrogation-like attitude is strange to me. Are you good enough for what? That's the normal answer for this vague question. Good enough to be a Systems Architect at Amazon? For myself and most others, definitely not. Good enough for professional football? Again, for most of us, no. Good enough to breathe, be alive? For most of us yes, just because we are. Accepting who you are is good and necessary to be confident, like the speaker, but it doesn't mean we are ready to pilot an airplane. So... be confident by being honest and accepting of self, yes, but then to be more confident, we have to honestly grow somehow.
Julien, Thanks for the great work you're doing, you can't imagine the positive influence you made on my life Literally i'm remembering all your words and following your advices through my daily life however sometimes it's really difficult to maintain the same energy especially with rejections or when approching a wrong person but i feel great afterall
Yes me too was chasing money, confidence and validation, all I wanted to be was to be myself, to be comfortable being myself and not give a fuck whether it is a group (sometimes can be intimidating) or induvijual. I never ever felt so good. Once more Thank you.
@@JulienHimself yeah bro it really is you have some like genius concepts one that really helped me was that happiness should be my default state i dont need anything to be happy that completely changed my life
I absolutely love your authenticity. But seriously, you made me relate myself to the sun. When does the sun shine the brightest? When the clouds are removed. Those clouds are different for everyone, whether it is self-deprivation, unattended trauma, harmful vices, etc. When those are removed, you shine bright without the validation of anyone or without the permission of anyone. The sun suns and people peoples. You are you. Embrace it. But of course there’s nothing wrong with a few clouds or storms, as long as you are okay with them. Haha Thank you, Julien!
Out of all the self help videos, Julien has the best❤. He really knows how to make a person feel more confident in himself of herself. I mean hats off to this guy
Hi Julian i just came across your channel..... it makes so much sense that I wasn't like that aka "introvert" when I was a child. It was true traumatic events and social conditioning that I developed a "PERFECTIONIST" PERSONA THAT I WORE FOR 15 YEARS FUCK THAT SHIT!!!!!!!!!!! I tried removing and letting go my ego and performing reps I HAVE NEVER FELT FREE IN A LONG TIME.... But the thing is it's so hard to be myself in a WORK SETTING..... HALP
I've only recently come across this channel and so far it is awesome. As a side note I love the attire or more so the ability for the speaker to wear it and be completely comfortable with the choice. I wish I had that level of confidence.
Very astute to see the strongest self as the authentic development rather than one chasing external things. A better you is you proper, where you'll find a desire to love authentically that will change what needs to be changed from who you are, for who you are, with what you know should be, and of course, not changing what shouldn't be.
Love u so much brother...letting go was well explained... But in the end of the video you said some gem but they were not well explained on the level of layer 4 which I call identity.. I understood so much from this...i hope others too.
Julian, you are fantastic!!! You give me so much confidence to just be me!! No bullshit, no false impressions, nothing. Thank you so much. Gary from Scotland 🏴
Self-affirmations are like falling asleep, you have to do it without force, or else it has the opposite effect. By the way, I think it's alright to hide parts of yourself if it's for other peoples sake. Insecurity is basically when you refuse to take all your pain on yourself - and make it everyones elses problem by constantly signaling your needs, which is actually a kind of begging or manipulation
I am, what I am, what I am and I am good enough. Follow your excitement. Your joy. You will feel good. You won’t care about others opinions, or perceived opinions. You will find, all along, it was always, and only your opinion that truly mattered.
You will never be good enough before GOD, to my understanding from going off Christian/Torah/Buddhist teaching’s, no amount of works you do will ever get you to be “good enough” or “clean” we are all dirty and come short before GOD, and we are saved through his grace. I appreciate Julians messages, as I have been watching them myself for a boost, But we must understand we all fall short before a holy all mighty GOD.
When he said "from the inside out... Everything changes.. and people FEEL IT". I was so happy because then people would like me more 😂 Have got still a way ahead of me
this makes me think of a child hood scenario, what if you feel like you cant be yourself around other people, and so you go and find people that allow you to be that self you feel you are on the inside, and then one day, someone you respect, [parent, sibling, past friend] comes along and says, "this isn't you, common, stop it with this cringe shit and get a grip!"
I notice that I aspire to be authentic and feel good enough... because I don't feel good enough until I am. Yeah, once in a while I realize that those are good things to pursue but really everything is ok already. I am good enough already.
So, to make it simple, we can ask ourselves: what do I hate about myself" (I use it and it's crazy) it tells you exactly what you need to let go of, really
question: are we good enough if we take advantage of other people, lie, be opportunistic or in any sort of way have a general attitude that disrepects others and ourselves?
The worst case scenario that bothers me is they thinking that I'm going crazy or insane and that's making my mind goes blank and i dont even know what to do and how to act normally when this scenario pops up in my mind.
I have this same problem. I do Korean yoga, ton of writing, and counseling. Mental trauma is a whole different ball park when it comes to this shit because our mental problems are specifically designed by us. It's been a nightmare for me working through it. For a while all of the videos I'd watch I would just make up another lie telling myself that I'm further ahead then I was which would create yet another mental crash.
The example starting at 20:00 / 20:14 is exactly the type of situation I often find myself in because the words don't come to me, even though I know what to say in my head. I blame this on autism, do you have any advice on how to better get a grip on it?
@Julien But why doesn't more equal to confidence? Genuinely I have felt this. I waited for more to come but that just added to my stress and my low self esteem to the point that nothing made me happy or confident. Why is it that it is only at our absolute dumbest that we find confidence and freedom?
I either don’t agree with Julien on this or he is not concise in his preach. I believe almost everything Julien talks about is not confidence but specifically self confidence and this seams to be what you describe. Confidence stems from competence but confidence can also exist without competence however with one the other is likely to follow and the growth is exponential. So more does equal confidence because a man who smells good and has a lot of money will have more confidence then a man who doesn’t but they both can have equal self confidence. Everybody hates Andrew Tate but the dude has some amazing takes and one of which is the idea that money amplifies who you are. If you were a dork then you’d become a dork with a lot of money and all that comes with it but still a dork. You want to become “the man” when you have nothing so you’ll be “the man” when you have everything.
It's not about the stuff I'm surrender with but I don't know how to overcome it . I mean I get I tend to be shy and all but for some reason I'm scared of opening up and due to that I create a void vibe that takes the energy away from those who meet it and it's so frustating it also happens with my closest friends

I was disempowered, emasculated, guilted, shamed, belittled, rejected, ostracized, abandoned, humiliated, neglected, abused, infantilized, criticized.

"You owe me your life"
"You wouldnt even exist without me"
"You have no rights"
"You are mine to do with whatever I feel like"
The ONLY antidote to this lifetime of loveless abuse is.....Total Self-love, Self-acceptance.
"I am inherently good"
"I dont need to be doing things for other people to feel worthy"
"I dont need approval from others to feel good about myself"
"I dont need external validation to feel good about myself"
"I am good, just because I am"
"I am lovable"

Yeah and it's never ending making us feel more empty inside
Why am I confident : because I’m me and I’m content with how and who I am
There's still a balance, right? I feel the same, but we still live in a society that needs some sort of standards.

The other one says: Nothing is ever worth compromising your authenticity so if you're feeling anxious, you shouldn't scam people by being superficially charismatic and high energy.
What paradigm should I consider whether both holds true and the contradiction breaks?
I feel like you’re viewing this in extremes. Because time is added into the equation, you can be yourself, and feel aspects of both, depending on when it is.
There's a way to be both at the same time. You can be confidently anxious. Usually people pretend that they aren't anxious or they withdraw, both because of shame. If you remove shame and unveil confidence you can be confidently anxious: You are open about your anxiety, you even joke about it etc.
Love you Julien man. You’ve really helped me with my severe social anxiety
Oh, my God... This was a beautiful video. The parts where Julien asks everyone why they're good enough... Wow. Just wow. That's hitting me so fucking hard right now lol... Thank you posting, thank you for being here.
The question "Are you good enough?" without any context asked with a proud and interrogation-like attitude is strange to me. Are you good enough for what? That's the normal answer for this vague question. Good enough to be a Systems Architect at Amazon? For myself and most others, definitely not. Good enough for professional football? Again, for most of us, no. Good enough to breathe, be alive? For most of us yes, just because we are. Accepting who you are is good and necessary to be confident, like the speaker, but it doesn't mean we are ready to pilot an airplane. So... be confident by being honest and accepting of self, yes, but then to be more confident, we have to honestly grow somehow.
This is one of the most valuable lessons I’ve ever had the privilege to be apart of
Thank you!❤ I needed that “this is the ideal” view🙏🏼
❤
Dude Julien : these thumbnails have me laughing sometimes with the special outfits. I love it
Julien, Thanks for the great work you're doing, you can't imagine the positive influence you made on my life
Literally i'm remembering all your words and following your advices through my daily life however sometimes it's really difficult to maintain the same energy especially with rejections or when approching a wrong person but i feel great afterall
Yes me too was chasing money, confidence and validation, all I wanted to be was to be myself, to be comfortable being myself and not give a fuck whether it is a group (sometimes can be intimidating) or induvijual. I never ever felt so good. Once more Thank you.
Julien has always been the goat. So happy to have seen his evolution
Julien your the best man change my life greatly appreciate you
Amazing to hear! I'm glad my content has been so impactful for you! 🙏
@@JulienHimself yeah bro it really is you have some like genius concepts one that really helped me was that happiness should be my default state i dont need anything to be happy that completely changed my life
I absolutely love your authenticity. But seriously, you made me relate myself to the sun. When does the sun shine the brightest? When the clouds are removed. Those clouds are different for everyone, whether it is self-deprivation, unattended trauma, harmful vices, etc. When those are removed, you shine bright without the validation of anyone or without the permission of anyone. The sun suns and people peoples. You are you. Embrace it. But of course there’s nothing wrong with a few clouds or storms, as long as you are okay with them. Haha Thank you, Julien!
I imagined the teletubby sun 🌞
@@ColonialT7 😂
I just have to say I really liked your analogy!
Out of all the self help videos, Julien has the best❤. He really knows how to make a person feel more confident in himself of herself. I mean hats off to this guy
Oh Julien, thank you so much 💜💛✨💫💜💛✨😍
You are my hero 😊❤️
Thank you Julien! So grateful to have found you today :)
Hi Julian i just came across your channel..... it makes so much sense that I wasn't like that aka "introvert" when I was a child. It was true traumatic events and social conditioning that I developed a "PERFECTIONIST" PERSONA THAT I WORE FOR 15 YEARS FUCK THAT SHIT!!!!!!!!!!! I tried removing and letting go my ego and performing reps I HAVE NEVER FELT FREE IN A LONG TIME.... But the thing is it's so hard to be myself in a WORK SETTING..... HALP
REPLY ME JULIAN I NEED THE VALIDATION < LOLLLLLLLLLLL
I've only recently come across this channel and so far it is awesome. As a side note I love the attire or more so the ability for the speaker to wear it and be completely comfortable with the choice. I wish I had that level of confidence.
Man you got it!! Very good a wonderful analogy
You rock. Just such an amazing dude. You inspire authenticity. That is the only way to be. 👍
Hi from Afghanistan 🇦🇫 love your videos and it motivates me❤
Very astute to see the strongest self as the authentic development rather than one chasing external things. A better you is you proper, where you'll find a desire to love authentically that will change what needs to be changed from who you are, for who you are, with what you know should be, and of course, not changing what shouldn't be.
This one was one of the best in my opinion!!!
I lived a lifetime of masking…what if I don’t even know myself at the moment?
Anybody else loving his clothing choices ❤❤ that long flowing jacket 🧥 robe whatever he wears it well ❤
Love u so much brother...letting go was well explained... But in the end of the video you said some gem but they were not well explained on the level of layer 4 which I call identity..
I understood so much from this...i hope others too.
Watched a couple of your videos and they already helped me soo much in such a short time! Thank you! ❤
You are hilarious. I’m so glad I came across you.
Thank you 😂 💪💝
Julian, you are fantastic!!! You give me so much confidence to just be me!! No bullshit, no false impressions, nothing. Thank you so much. Gary from Scotland 🏴
Giving me so much peace to pull from. Thanks man.
Self-affirmations are like falling asleep, you have to do it without force, or else it has the opposite effect. By the way, I think it's alright to hide parts of yourself if it's for other peoples sake. Insecurity is basically when you refuse to take all your pain on yourself - and make it everyones elses problem by constantly signaling your needs, which is actually a kind of begging or manipulation
I am, what I am, what I am and I am good enough. Follow your excitement. Your joy. You will feel good. You won’t care about others opinions, or perceived opinions. You will find, all along, it was always, and only your opinion that truly mattered.
You will never be good enough before GOD, to my understanding from going off Christian/Torah/Buddhist teaching’s, no amount of works you do will ever get you to be “good enough” or “clean” we are all dirty and come short before GOD, and we are saved through his grace. I appreciate Julians messages, as I have been watching them myself for a boost, But we must understand we all fall short before a holy all mighty GOD.
this is my mother's feeling, im conscious about it because i'm willing to feel into it without narrative
Best video I’ve seen on this topic. Thanks Julien
When he said "from the inside out... Everything changes.. and people FEEL IT". I was so happy because then people would like me more 😂 Have got still a way ahead of me
Wow! This is really, very helpful Julien, exactly what I need right now!
Self Love Is The Cure For Self Hate
this makes me think of a child hood scenario, what if you feel like you cant be yourself around other people, and so you go and find people that allow you to be that self you feel you are on the inside, and then one day, someone you respect, [parent, sibling, past friend] comes along and says, "this isn't you, common, stop it with this cringe shit and get a grip!"
As insightful as ever. 🚀🚀🚀🚀
I notice that I aspire to be authentic and feel good enough... because I don't feel good enough until I am. Yeah, once in a while I realize that those are good things to pursue but really everything is ok already. I am good enough already.
So, to make it simple, we can ask ourselves: what do I hate about myself" (I use it and it's crazy) it tells you exactly what you need to let go of, really
I seriously did lean in when you started talking about the scratch mark. Why??? I love your advice.
This video is such a "relief "
8:53 find me a woman who loves me as much as she loves Julien ❤
11:15 I'm listening tk this on repeat till it lands.
omg thank you!
18:12 >> wise words on comunication skills
"self-love is removing self-hate"
I really did watch Julien's videos before networking 😂
Love the fit Julien
I am good enough because I am Me🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💕
Your teaching is top notch
Please stop saying "let that land" Let that land.NOTE: even if you don't stop saying "let that land", Julien, you ARE GOOD ENOUGH.
Happy Guru Purnima from India ❤
question: are we good enough if we take advantage of other people, lie, be opportunistic or in any sort of way have a general attitude that disrepects others and ourselves?
You are absolutely amazing
Right on!
Yeah i think i always want to be the best version of myself wich isn't a bad thing but i really need to be less nervous about just being me :)
The worst case scenario that bothers me is they thinking that I'm going crazy or insane and that's making my mind goes blank and i dont even know what to do and how to act normally when this scenario pops up in my mind.
I have this same problem. I do Korean yoga, ton of writing, and counseling. Mental trauma is a whole different ball park when it comes to this shit because our mental problems are specifically designed by us. It's been a nightmare for me working through it. For a while all of the videos I'd watch I would just make up another lie telling myself that I'm further ahead then I was which would create yet another mental crash.
Fire brother - less is more 🔥
What if someone does something actually wrong, like stealing and crime etc. do they still find that they’re enough because of who they are?
Right on time🎉
Nice! Be sure to report back with your top takeaway from the video! 🙌
brother, confidence comes from not dragging all the hair from the side of ur head onto the top. Hope this helps.
When your parent die you realize it wasn’t there approval it was yours to make them proud and play them straight.
This guys legit!
Uhhh i love this!❤❤❤
Love this
The example starting at 20:00 / 20:14 is exactly the type of situation I often find myself in because the words don't come to me, even though I know what to say in my head. I blame this on autism, do you have any advice on how to better get a grip on it?
Genius.
What you said at around 7 minutes…about the parents…I never had the words or explanation for this..thank you so much for sharing 🥹❤️
Your videos are very helpful and I learn a lot from them 💯😀
Any chance of seeing a live event in Iceland?😁
9:01 that's a trick question 😂😂😂😂
this one had some good comedy skits, thanks for the wise words as always Julien
I've no clue what I am if i exclude things I do or have achieved. Those define me.
3:15 6:00 9:30 11:30 13:50 16:30 18:18 24:50
Very great video!
So the first minute hit hard
@Julien But why doesn't more equal to confidence? Genuinely I have felt this. I waited for more to come but that just added to my stress and my low self esteem to the point that nothing made me happy or confident. Why is it that it is only at our absolute dumbest that we find confidence and freedom?
I either don’t agree with Julien on this or he is not concise in his preach. I believe almost everything Julien talks about is not confidence but specifically self confidence and this seams to be what you describe.
Confidence stems from competence but confidence can also exist without competence however with one the other is likely to follow and the growth is exponential.
So more does equal confidence because a man who smells good and has a lot of money will have more confidence then a man who doesn’t but they both can have equal self confidence. Everybody hates Andrew Tate but the dude has some amazing takes and one of which is the idea that money amplifies who you are. If you were a dork then you’d become a dork with a lot of money and all that comes with it but still a dork. You want to become “the man” when you have nothing so you’ll be “the man” when you have everything.
The outfit so terrible ❤ the best speaker ever
incredible video
It's not about the stuff I'm surrender with but I don't know how to overcome it . I mean I get I tend to be shy and all but for some reason I'm scared of opening up and due to that I create a void vibe that takes the energy away from those who meet it and it's so frustating it also happens with my closest friends
its always about letting go . which is really hard to do .
In fact it's impossible to do, it's not something you do, it's stopping the doing
What do you find difficult about it? Curious to hear more
